How far along? 16 weeks 4 days
Total Weight Gain: 4 lbs. but I feel like it should be 10+...I guess I shouldn't be complaining! All in due time!
Maternity Clothes: yep and loving it- so comfortable!
Stretch Marks: Nope and I'm using this Josie Maran delicious smelling oil that my awesome sister-in-law gave me! Love that stuff!
Sleep: Amazing! Our brand new bed has arrived and I'm sleeping like a baby (with a baby hehe) I'm cocooned in between two body pillows and it's heaven!
Best moment of this week: Think I felt the little bean move- could quite possibly be me a figment of my imagination, but it definitely felt like something was rumbling in my belly :)
Miss Anything? Sushi! Paul went to go eat sushi with some friends while I was on student council Christmas party duty and I was green with envy!
Movement: Once, but since then nothing- really hoping to start feeling some consistent somersaults
Food Craving: Sweets, but only in the morning...cinnamon buns, raspberry jam on a slice of panetonne, fruit, yogurt...I digress
Anything making you queasy or sick? The thought of eating eggs in the morning is enough to make me gag :(
Gender Prediction: This week, girl. I'm definitely growing wider rather than out and the sweets craving makes me wonder, but since we're not going to find out I'm content guessing!
Labor Signs: Nope
Symptoms: Feeling like I'm being stretched from the inside, which is exactly what's happening, but I'm more achy and my bum hip for sure is not happy with this child inside :) Other than the usual minor aches, really can't complain!
Belly button in or out? In
Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! Christmas is right around the corner and I'm feeling very blessed and overjoyed to be given this gift of life inside that will soon be in our arms. I can't even imagine what Mary felt when she knew she was carrying the savor of the world inside her. I feel the Christmas spirit more this year than ever before. Now if only the weather would cooperate and bring some snow; blast this balmy weather!
Looking forward to: Going to the doctor this week and having our second sonogram! I cannot wait to see this little bugger's face on the tele! Here's hoping Ben, our sonogram guy, won't slip up and show the sex (who am I kidding- I wouldn't be terribly heartbroken if we were to find out ;))
